Pursuits by police on World's Wildest Police Videos used to be narrated in sneering style by the immortal John Bunnell, who I usually referred to as "Bunny".

'51 Vic - oooeee. You're breakin' my heart with this one! Would be a great transkit for AMT's re-released-a-million-times '50 convertible.

I did go with Tire Rack for both cars; Goodyear Assurance on both (205/55R16 on the Cougar). Been happy with them so far. Took the Cougar to a car club meet up in Atascadero two weeks ago; ran without a hitch there and back and got around 29-30 mpg. And a week after I got home: dead battery. I noticed I'd left the mp3 player plugged in the cigarette lighter, so... Jumped it, started right up, drove it for about 30-45 minutes, unplugged the player and parked it. Next Sunday - dead again; guess it wasn't the player. Will get that checked out soon, as I really enjoy driving it.

Earliest I can remember was an AMT '62 Tempest convertible when I was four; Dad built and I watched/helped. I don't think we painted it, and I played with it to death afterward. This would have been in '64 so Dad probably found it at a discount store.

Haven't bought much in a while but I keep my eyes open. Passed on a couple '33 Chevy Panel kits whose bids hit the stratosphere, and a '58 Pontiac hardtop that did the same, but did snag this very decent '61 Fleetwood body: ... which will go to improve the damaged one I got from the Tennessee tractor auction some months back: ...then I can cut the good A-pillars from the blue body to fix a second complete one I have in the stash - and maybe convert it to a six-window short-tailed Town Sedan. (Jo-Han already shortened it a bit anyway to fit the box, so...)

He's trying to catch up with a little old lady in a shiny red Super Stock Dodge!

Brands X, Y and Z always lose to the sponsor's product.

Bill, will the Jo-Han '57 DeSoto promo bumpers fit your model?

Well that just sucks.

Fine, Howard and Howard were three of my favorite Stooges.

I do. Steve, is there any chance we'll get the Scale Stars 1/32 '40 Ford sedan?

How tough were Imperials built?

Looks a lot better than a lot of Sixties-era Revell chrome, anyway

Maybe they could open all the gates like they've been doing with the other Mod Stocks and see what else is left? Hopefully enough to make a full detail job out of the often-reissued '64 Craftsman.

See? Sí señor.

Interesting; the last time the Switchers '32 Ford coupe was released, wasn't it the American Graffiti version?
